Correct answer
- BSí.Yes.
Fog suddenly reduces visibility. Sometimes it even makes it impossible to keep driving, even with good lights. In that case, driving below the minimum speed is justified, because we must always adapt our speed to our field of vision and be able to stop our vehicle within it if anything unexpected happens.
